Metamorphosis

Today’s Earworm is Résumé by Jenevieve.

I think I’m going through some sort of metamorphosis. I cut my hair! I know, it was long overdue. It took me two weeks to figure out how to style it, but I think I’m comfortable with it now. I appreciate how versatile and effortless it is.

And I’ve changed my signature perfume. I’ve been wearing this scent since my college days! I guess one of the reasons for the change is that I’m tired of hunting it down. They just don’t make the original anymore. So, I spent a few days choosing my new signature.

I know that some women like to own a whole wall of perfume, and there’s nothing wrong with that, but I don’t like changing perfumes. I choose one that I really like and that closely matches my presence. And it really does become my signature.

The thought of my upcoming birthday might be influencing a lot of my recent decisions. The hunt for a new perfume was almost a spiritual revival for me. I chose something that Cleopatra might wear. And maybe… just maybe… I’ll inherit some of the elegance, charm, and charisma of a great queen.
